    When Paul, Weiss are deciding who to invite for the virtual AC, do you think SJT scores will be considered in conjunction with written applications? Or will there be a benchmark for the SJT that once you pass your written app is then looked at?

    When answering an application question, should you refer to a law firm in a singular or plural sense (i.e. R&G are vs R&G is)?
